The CCEE challenge for this weeks was to make a card with ruby red, creamy caramel and black with a neutral color, we were to incorporate dry embossing. I combined this challenge with the TSC challenge this week which was to use lace whether it be a punch or real lace and to do distressing.
Visit our CCEE blog to see the other CCEE girl's card and join in our challenge with us.

Shirl! I love this and think you may have crated a new category, 'Man Pretty'. I love the ruggedness of the distressing and masculine image and the contrasting swirls, and DP. This is just beautiful! LYMI sis!
